Easter Recap!

Happy Easter

Just a quick note to say

Happy Easter!

We are so grateful for our Savior and our relationship with him, and the ones that the kids are developing!

Jason Caught UP

Jason loves saying that he is married to an older woman but he now has to admit that we are the same age. I had planned a surprise party for Jason's 30th but as the week leading up to it approached the surprise was altered. Both of our lovely mothers decided to make comments about seeing him that weekend, on Friday to be exact. I had been telling him that we weren't doing anything on his actual birthday but would be getting together with the fam on Saturday. Also when he called during the day on his birthday Emerson proceeded to say, guess who is coming over tonight...your parents, Cooper, Ainsley & Beckett. Surprise all but blown!

He got home finally and the kids jumped out yelling surprise!! Jason later admitted that we thought we were going to Chuck E. Cheese for this b-day celebration. Instead we ate some pizza and then Jason opened gifts. After all the presents and most of the Costco chocolate cake was eaten we headed out to do some bowling. Erica held her own again most of the men and I managed to beat a couple of the guys. Jason's Dad was the winner but I don't think 150 points were even achieved. I think for awhile everyone thought we were playing GOLF!



Happy Birthday Sweetheart!

Birthday/Blizzard Party Day

We celebrated Sawyer's second birthday on Saturday, March 8th, in the midst of blizzard like conditions. Due to the conditions outside some people were unable to make it and we missed them alot. For those who did we feasted on homemade lasagna, french bread, salad and the best chocolate sheet cake ever. The lasagna recipe was from Jason's mom and the cake recipe was from my great-aunties.

After pigging out on the delicious food Sawyer opened his presents. He received some really fun ones...a tank from Uncle Brian, a Little People dinosaur set from the Wall fam, some cute clothes, $, and a baseball mitt from Dad, Emerson and me.

When the party was over we were so glad that our families are so close and that they were able to share in Sawyer's special day! To all those who couldn't make it we missed you but were relieved to know that you were safe at home.

The kids wore these part of the time at Sawyer's second birthday party!

Did you figure out the meaning?

731 Days

It is so crazy to think that Sawyer is that many days old (731). The past 2 years have completely flown by. He is such a little, mischievous, loving, rowdie little boy who has changed the dynamics of our family so much. He adores Emerson and loves to wrestle with Jason, and forever will be my little snuggler.

For his birthday we did our 2 year professional picture and then met up with my Mom, Emerson, Erica & her kids to go to the Indy Children's Museum. The kids loved the Curious George and the dinosaurs exhibits.



Once we got home we had our traditional brownie sundaes and sang Happy Birthday. Sawyer loved getting to blow out his candles and then Emerson gave him his present from her. She had picked out a backpack and some underwear. When we put the underwear on Sawyer thought that they felt a little weird, but a couple of moments later they were a little wet. He just looked around like what is everyone going to do now! I guess potty training is still a few days away!:)

Happy 2nd Birthday to my Sweet Teeny Man (SWEE)!
